Ingredients
– 2 cups fresh cherries
– 200g dark chocolate
– 1/2 cup sugar
– 1 tsp almond extract
– 2 tbsp coconut oil
Instructions
1-First, wash and dry 2 cups of fresh cherries to remove any excess moisture. This helps the chocolate coat evenly without seizing.
2-Next, melt 200g of dark chocolate using a double boiler or microwave in short bursts for smooth results.
3-Once the chocolate is melted, stir in 2 tablespoons of coconut oil and 1 teaspoon of almond extract. This mixture enhances the flavor and texture.
4-Dip each cherry into the chocolate, holding it by the stem, and let the excess drip off.
5-After dipping, sprinkle a pinch of sugar on each cherry for added sweetness. Place them on parchment paper to set.
6-Finally, refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to harden the chocolate. Adapt these steps for dietary needs, like using vegan chocolate.
